babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes
“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.

WE told you only the worst could come from him.
WE told you to stop normalizing his behavior and stop telling us we're overreacting.

Every American should be ashamed of who we are and what we have become as a nation today. We have a long history of military misadventures and even crimes but the attacks we have been conducting on Venezuela are among the most wanton, egregious and least defensible acts we’ve ever conducted.

White voters didn't want justice.
I read the transcript before watching any of the hearing videos. He comes off on the page exactly as he comes off irl. Competent, factual, reasonable.
We (and by we I mean, specifically, WHITE VOTERS) robbed ourselves of justice.

I spent my year of fellowship in Health Policy and Advocacy studying and writing about the effects of private equity on health care.
That was right after the Hahnemann hospital buyout by Silicon Valley private equity and subsequent closure and sale for parts, including all of the residency slots.

For roughly the past 20 years, private equity firms have been on a medical facility buying spree—more than 22% of all for-profit hospitals—only to unload them a few years later. And they often leave devastation in their wake. trib.al/vdCqzLC

China to hike tax on condoms in attempt to boost falling birth rate
From 1 January, contraceptives will be subject to a 13% VAT rate – part of a carrot-and-stick approach by the government to increase births
China is set to impose a value-added tax (VAT) on condoms and other contraceptives for the first time in three decades, as the country tries to boost its birthrate and modernise its tax laws.
